I think Chelsea has only had about one on-screen confessional all season long. And she's typically been part of the tribes that win immunity too.
Survivor - Ghost Island
- Thread starter CYdTracked
- Start date
Listened to a podcast recently where they interviewed Stephanie and she basically said Chelsea was pretty dumb and wasn't smart enough to blindside anyone lol.
That was dumb. The all time dumb move was the guy that gave his immunity to another girl. Then all 4 girls proceded to vote him out. I think his name was Eric. He won the challenge. Then the hot girl talked him into giving up his immunity, then they all voted him out. He looked like a complete idiot.
I was listening to a podcast about the dumbest moves of all time and they actually said while dumb, that at least didn't directly cost Erik $900,000. But yes, still dumb.
Erik giving up immunity necklace that would have got him to the final 4 is by far the dumbest move ever IMO. It's crazy how cocky or comfortable people get in that game and go home with idols in their bag. Chris made it very clear Dom or Wendell needed to go yet didn't account that those 2 knew he was gunning for them and was probably plotting for votes too. Better to use an idol that you didn't need to use than to get voted out with one you didn't use.
He still could have been voted out though and not made it to the final. Woo had it beat against Kass had he taken her. NO ONE liked her. In the finale, Jeff asked show of hands who would've voten for Woo over Kass and it would have been a lock. That was literally a $900,000 move.
Chris is not a good survivor player but he was a great character. Still a win for the show. What a great merge episode.
I highly recommend this episode recap podcast. Both guys are former survivor contestants.

Woo's move was dumb too but he was not giving up individual immunity which is the 1 thing that keeps you alive in the game. Yeah they could have voted Erik out at 4 too but you have to get there first and he was guaranteed safe with immunity. Woo probably is not the only one to bring the wrong person with him to final tribal either. I'd love to see the curse of winning a car at reward challenge make an appearance this year as that used to be the biggest curse early in the show. Doubt it happens but that would be epic. Glad to see the eating challenge is back next week.
To me it was the fact that Woo was already beyond needing idols. He was there and he had it. I'm pumped for the eating challenge. A true survivor experience.
He reminds me of the character that Topher Grace played in Predators (the one with Adrien Brody). He even looks kinda like Grace.
Finally starting to see some better gameplay now the merge has happened. Loved that they brought back the eating challenge, Angela dominated that and made some of those guys look like pansies. She is starting to become one of the people I wouldn't mind seeing win. Dom and Wendell have been my 2 favorites so far but I'm guessing they eventually get voted out for being too much of a threat. I'm kind of neutral on Michael, he's done just enough to keep himself in the game and was nice to see someone play an idol at the right time but his gameplay is lacking where he's going to need some kind of immunity to stay in much longer I think.
Angela swallowing that slug thing whole was equally impressive and disturbing.
So disturbing I searched Pornhub to see if she had any videos.
Yeah I really like the game play portion. It's also to the point where Survivor can quit screwing around with Tribes so they can actually plan more into the future
I'm waiting for the season where they eliminate the merge. Somehow. Players consider it such an automatic and talk about all they need to do is make the merge, would be fun to see that not happen.
We were talking about the same thing last week. They need to switch that up and just let the season play out without merging
There'e be a lot of fire making. The problem with no-merge would be the final vote, which is a huge part of the game and i don't know how they'd address that.
It'd be interesting if they could pull it off.
It'd be interesting if they could pull it off.
They'd have to do something like leaving three tribes active for the duration. If one tribe gets too low, figure out ways to mix the tribes up. At the end when it's down to 2 players per tribe, they make fire or something to determine who from each tribe goes to the end. Or something. I'm sure they could figure out how to make it work.
I remember one year they did 3 tribes and they allowed it to get down to just one player. Probably around the 12th season??? Not really sure. That tribe kept voting out the strongest person because they were a threat. It was almost like Survivor was trying to say "Hey dumbass's, you keep losing because you are voting out your strongest and keeping the weekest"
Only problem is that the jury wouldn't have any idea what was going on around the camp, and it could really jack up the voting.
Plus, they would also be really, really susceptible to influence of pissed off people who come back to Ponderosa and trash the remaining people in the tribe the just got voted out of.
